== Overview ==
The [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/ff795586(v=WinEmbedded.0).aspx Windows Embedded Standard 7] (WES7) image for [http://www.compulab.co.il/iam/html/iam-cm-datasheet.htm CM-iAM] is provided in the two variations: image for internal NAND Flash storage device and image for exrenal SATA storage device.
* The image for internal NAND Flash storage device provides the basic features of the Windows 7 SP1 Pro and it is based on the [[WES7: Templates | Thin Client template]] with following additions:
** Enhanced Write Filter Boot Environmet
** Custom Logon Desktop Background Image
** Dialog Box Filter
** Enhanced Write Filter with HORM
** File Based Write Filter
** Hide Boot Screens
** Message Box Default Reply
** RAM Disk Controller
** Registry Filter
** Telnet Server
: The [http://www.compulab.co.il/iam/download/iam-wes7-nand-img.zip WES7 NAND Flash run-time image package for CM-iAM] includes a ready-to-run image which can be installed on the internal NAND Flash storage device.
* The image for external SATA storage device provides the most of the features of the Windows 7 SP1 Pro and it is based on the [[WES7: Templates | Application Compatibility template]] with following additions:
** Custom Logon Desktop Background Image
** Dialog Box Filter
** Enhanced Write Filter with HORM
** File Based Write Filter
** Hide Boot Screens
** Message Box Default Reply
** RAM Disk Controller
** Registry Filter
** Telnet Server
: The [http://www.compulab.co.il/iam/download/iam-wes7-sata-img.zip WES7 SATA run-time image package for CM-iAM] includes a ready-to-run image which can be installed on the external SATA storage device.
The image is installed by using a bootable USB Flash Drive (UFD) combined with the [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd744322(WS.10).aspx WinPE] and [http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd744377(WS.10).aspx ImageX] tools.
 
== General Notes ==
The provided WES7 image is built as an evaluation copy and therefore it is time limited (expires after 30 days). In order to create a permanent WES7 image, a license should be purchased from Microsoft and the image should be re-built.
 
== Preparing the USB Flash Drive with WinPE and WES7 Image==
# [[WES7: Preparing the UFD to boot the WinPE | Format the UFD with NTFS and make it active by using Diskpart]].
# Unzip the downloaded WES7 run-time image package.
# Copy the content of the ''WinPE'' and ''WES7 Image'' folders to the UFD.
# Disconnect the UFD from your host computer.
 
== WES7 Image Deployment ==
=== NAND Flash Image Deployment ===
# Connect the UFD with WinPE and WES7 image to the iAM board. '''Important Note:''' Ensure that no other USB or SATA Storage Device is connected.
# Boot the CM-iAM and enter the BIOS Setup.
# Set the appropriate Date and Time.
# Go to the “Boot” section and set your UFD as the first bootable device.
# Save the configuration changes and exit BIOS.
# Wait until the WinPE prompt appears.
# Browse to the USB Flash Drive and run ''iAM_WES7_NAND_deploy.bat'' file for deploying the image.
# The automatic script formats the NAND Flash storage device and deploys the WES7 image.
# Ensure that there is no error message during the installation of the image.
 
The script output should appear as follows:

== Boot the Image ==
# After the system shuts down, disconnect the UFD.
# Turn on the CM-iAM.
# After the system boots, the [http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793540(v=WinEmbedded.1001).aspx Sysprep] process starts automatically and resets the clock for the Windows Product Activation.
# The system is automatically rebooted once Sysprep is complete.
# After the reboot the system will boot into Windows Welcome mode.
